Intermountain joins Zions Bank as Utah Championship co-sponsor

Intermountain Health has joined Zions Bank as a co-presenting sponsor of the Utah Championship, a Utah stop on the Korn Ferry golf tour. The event will be played Aug. 1-4, 2024.

“Intermountain Health is honored to join Zions Bank as a presenting sponsor of the Utah Championship golf tournament,” said Intermountain Health President and CEO Rob Allen. “Our mission, helping people live the healthiest lives possible, is rooted in community. We’re pleased to strengthen this event for the state of Utah.”

Now entering its 33rd year, the Utah Championship has become a premier golf tournament in Utah. It has produced an impressive list of champions, including the inaugural winner John Daly, Masters champion and Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson, Charles Schwab Cup titleholder Steven Alker and many others.

“We’ve been proud to align our Zions Bank brand with an event like the Utah Championship that is so iconic to our state,” said Zions Bank President and CEO Scott Anderson. “Intermountain Health is another incredible Utah partner that will help strengthen the event.”

“The overwhelming support from our local and national sponsors keeps Utah Championship a mainstay in the state and its golfing community,” said Jeff Robbins, Utah Sports Commission president and CEO. “Having partners like Zions Bank and now Intermountain Health as presenting sponsors increases the tournament’s ability to give back to our charitable organizations and host world class-golf in Utah.”

In 2018, the Utah Championship partnered with the Tony Finau Foundation to support Utah’s aspiring professional golfers. The mission of the organization is to provide resources and develop young players to chase their dreams of becoming a PGA Tour player. The tournament has donated approximately $500,000 to the foundation’s mentoring program in partnership with Finau and the Utah Sports Commission.
